Enveloped in Dior Haute Couture silk, she channeled the essence of Parisian allure. The gown, with its architectural simplicity and fluid grace, showcased Maria Grazia Chiuri's genius for distilling complexity into pure elegance. Dior accessories – from sculpted shoes to a meticulously chosen clutch – created a balanced narrative of style. The crowning glory came in the form of Bois de Rose and Rose Dior Bagatelle rings, complemented by Couture Dior earrings and a bracelet that caught the light like the first glimmer of dawn on the Seine.
